Room felt like it should’ve been much more expensive. Beds were comfortable, everything clean. Casino floor was nice to see the separate smoking room. Late night food wasn’t that great at all. I did see different options of other guests had, like pizza, looked really good. Breakfast sandwiche was 10/10! Casino was well maintained, smaller feel but big wins! Will definitely be back!

Highly recommend! Wonderful 3 week family vacation. Good location close to many towns and activities by car. Outstanding staff, always friendly and helpful. Most notably: Israel (Izzy), Kelsey, Casey, Shy, Vern, and Bricella- are all an asset to this hotel. Reasonably priced, clean rooms, jackpot breakfast daily, coffee 24/7, lobby fresh fruit water daily, use of recreation center/gym, and overall beautiful resort feel. We will only stay here on our future visits!!
